SOAP COMPOSITION.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Oct. 13, 1908.

Application filed March 11, 1908. Serial No. 420,383.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, Josli SIERRA V., a citizen of Guatemala, residing in the city'and county of San Francisco and State of California, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Soap Composition, of which the following is a specification in such full and clear terms as will enable those skilled in the art to construct and use the same.

My invention relates to soaps and has for its object to )rovideinan article of that class an ingre ient which will make. the same agreeable to the skin, which will preserve the hair and' cleanse the scalp.

I havediscovered that the pulp of the alligator pear, the Lamms persea, possesses the properties which I desire to impart to .my

soap. In other words, I have discovered that the combination with saponaceous materials of the pulp of the alligator pear will give to the resulting compound the qualities above named. I

My compound comprises in general terms the combination with a mixture of detergent materials such as olive oil, fine table salt and pear. I V

The proportions are as follows: olive oil 50 per cent., fine table salt 5 per cent., caustic soda 20 per cent, pulp of the alligator pear pulp of the alligator pear.

25 per cent. The above named proportions may be departed from without destroying the desired elfects of my compound.

The ingredients are mixed together in preparation and heated. heating causes the caustic soda to saponify the olive oil, forming soap and glycerin, with an excess of caustic soda.

Having described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure hyLette'rs Patent of the United States, is:

1. A soap composition consisting of-soap, glycerin, fine table salt, caustic soda and the 2. A soap composition consisting of olive oil fifty percent. and caustic soda twenty percent. mixed and heated to form soap and glycerin with an excess of caustic soda, fine table salt five per cent, and the pulp ofvthe alligator pear twenty-five per cent.

3. A soap composition consisting of the combination with soap of the pulp of the al ligator pear.

In testimony whereof I have set my hand this 4th day of March A. D. 1908, in the presence of the two subscribed witnesses.
